 - Caring for your dentures
 - Handle your dentures with care. Remove them at night when you sleep and brush them daily. You can use a regular toothbrush and toothpaste. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or abrasive toothpastes, which will leave scratches on the dentures. Hot water may distort the structure of the dentures, so do not put them in boiling water.
If you wear a partial denture, always remove it before you brush your natural teeth. Clean the teeth and the fitting surfaces carefully with a toothbrush and then soak them in a glass of water. Dry dentures can become brittle and crack or break.
